        "text": "A contingent offer includes a clause stating that the purchase of the new home is dependent on the sale of your current home. This protects you from owning two homes simultaneously, but it can be less appealing to sellers, especially in a seller's market. Sellers might prefer non-contingent offers, or they may include a kick-out clause allowing them to accept another offer if you don't remove your contingency within a specified timeframe. Kelby Contreras can help you structure an attractive contingent offer, advising on timelines and market conditions in areas like Miami-Dade and Broward County.",
